DIAGNOSIS CODE PROCEDURES

Code No.U0141 ETACS CAN timeout

CAUTION

• If the diagnosis code No. U0141 is set, be sure 

to diagnose the CAN bus line.

• When replacing the radio and CD player, 

always check that the communication circuit 
is normal.

• When the ETACS-ECU of vehicles without 

KOS is replaced, the encrypted code of the 
ignition key needs to be registered to the 
ETACS-ECU. (If the encrypted code is not reg-
istered, the engine cannot be started. Regis-
ter the encrypted code as described in 
GROUP 54A, Immobilizer System 

− How to 

Register Key ID 

P.54A-33

.)

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

If the signal from ETACS-ECU cannot be received, 
the radio and CD player sets the diagnosis code No. 
U0141.

JUDGEMENT CRITERIA

With the statuses that the ignition switch is at ON 
position, system voltage is 10 

− 16 V (data from 

ETACS-ECU), and there is no malfunction to the 
power supply fuse (IOD fuse), or odometer value is 
80.5 km or more, if the communication with 
ETACS-ECU cannot be established for 2,500 ms or 
more, the radio and CD player determines that a 
problem has occurred.
